Folk Festival Songwriter Contest, 1993 First Place,
Telluride Troubadour Contest.
After
receiving a degree from the State University of New York at Fredonia in social work and environmental Science,
Dan moved to Colorado to pursue his true calling of writing and performing
his music. A founding member of the
eclectic rock band Treehouse (1994 to 1999), Dan
has produced four solo albums of original music.
Dan

Gates, Loudon Wainwright III, Pat Donohue, Nashville Bluegrass Band, Mike
Marshall & Darol Anger.
Opening
tonight for Dan, are local favorites Cari Minor and
Ray Smith.
Carl
Minor released her
debut CD "Returning" in the Summer of 1999 to local acclaim. Lauded
by critic as one of the "freshest new female voices" in the
Boulder/Denver region. Cari was a finalist at the 2004 Telluride Blue Grass
Festival songwriters competition as well as a finalist at the 2002 and 1999
Rocky Mountain Folks Festival New Folks Showcase. Cari's
style has been
influenced by Joni Mitchell, Shawn Colvin, Ricki
Lee Jones and Patty Larkin.
Ray
Smith performed on the Vanguard Record Label with the
Jazz fusion band Flying Island in New
York City. He released his debut CD "Dance On A
Wire" in the Fall of 2002. His style can be likened to Bruce
Springsteen, Mark Cohen, Michael Hedges and Richard Thompson. Currently Ray
is working on the finishing touches of a debut "duo"' CD featuring
16 original compositions written by Ray and Cari. Ray's web site has additional samples of his music

WADIRUM
What
kind of music does WadiRum play? When asked that
question, each member of the band says something a little different. Perhaps
what defines the band best is a sense of musical variety. The five members
have roots in a fairly common set of genres: folk, rock, jazz, etc., but what
comes out when they play together is somehow different from all of these.
Stewart Erlich (vocals and guitars) has been
writing songs since he was in seventh grade, and played around the east coast
for several years before moving to Colorado
and co-founding WadiRum with the Illinois songwriter, Jill Pilon. Jill Pilon (vocals and
guitars) has been playing in Colorado
for over four years, and her voice has been hailed by critics as "crowd
hushing and spell-binding." Jesse Varner (bass) grew up in Arvada, and has been playing in Colorado since high school. Through his
years playing in jazz and fusion projects, his playing has developed into a
distinctly recognizable style, one that finds melody and harmony while still anchoring a deep
groove. Wesley Michaels (cello) is just as comfortable playing in punk bands
as he is playing with symphonies. His diverse sounds and rich tones add
darkness and depth to already lush compositions. Adam Randall (drums), a Minnesota native, has been writing, performing, and
recording the styles of rock, funk, fusion, and jazz for 14 years, and
recently moved to Colorado
where he plays in several groups and teaches drum lessons. Nicole Torres, the
very brilliant Denver songwriter, had this to say of Wadirum:
"Basically, your music is a manifestation of the ultra-melodious
symbiosis among 5 individual instruments. It's peaceful but provoctive, simple but sophisticated, beautiful but
strange and completely without genre....I'll probably have to write a song to express
how great I think ya'll are."
